Away with the faeries!

Today would have been Grandma's 92nd birthday. Lesley-Anne, Wendy and myself got matching tattoos in remembrance of her and what a beautiful, strong, amazing person she was. It's "Love" in her handwriting. I went to Mum's job shortly after to show her and she loved it. She said "Aw, that's really nice." (Ironically, Grandma would have killed us for getting it.) I was driving home from seeing Mummy and I just started tearing up. I was thinking about how grateful I am to belong to this family; how amazing Grandma was and how she raised Mum to be just as amazing, and I think Mum has done a pretty good job on me too. I was thinking about Les and Wendy and all of our other cousins and how close we are, etc. You know when you're just head over heels in love and giddy and you just want to scream it to the world? That's how I feel about my family and my life. Thanks, Grandma! I miss you and ...

I you!

Always and forever.

Here's to something new..

First post on my new blog. I will copy my old posts from my Tumblr shortly.

Karina fills me in on what I did on my birthday...

"...you told EVERYONE how much you love them, whilst you were hugging their face with your extremely sweaty face/arms. It was lovely....and you had your drunken smile, which is a personal favorite of mine...it's kinda like you manage to show all of your teeth at the same time, and make your eyes into a funny shape, and then it's always followed by a ridiculous laugh..." 

I love my friends and family! I had such a blast and my birthday made me appreciate them so much more! Life is wonderful.
